The win moved Washington to 42-34 on the season and clinched a
playoff spot.

It was Wall's first game action since Jan. 25. After
experiencing recurring pain in his left knee since November, Wall
underwent arthroscopic surgery Jan. 31. The initial prognosis
called for him to be sidelined six to eight weeks, so he returns
right at the back end of that range.

The Wizards have essentially held serve in his absence, winning
at a .556 clip (15-12) after playing .542 basketball (26-22) before
Wall shut it down.

Nonetheless, his return to the court with seven games remaining
in the regular season should give the team a boost ahead of a
potential first-round playoff matchup against LeBron James and the
Cavaliers.
